Seasons
Aqua Universalis excels in warmer weather with its radiant citrus and airy florals, making it ideal for spring and summer. Its lightness is less suited to cold temperatures, where it may disappear.

Its inoffensive, clean freshness is perfect for the office and everyday casual wear. The subtle projection suits close encounters and active situations but may lack presence for formal events.
Seasons
Castile's sparkling citrus and neroli heart are perfect for spring and summer, delivering airy freshness that soothes in heat. Its light musk and woods give gentle structure but lack the weight for cold weather.
